Research Purpose and Methodological Fit

Using the online library, read the following article:

  • Edmondson, A., & McManus, S. (2007). Methodological fit in management field research. Academy of Management Review, 32(4), 1155–1179. Business Source Complete

Considering the concepts of methodological fit presented in the article and your assigned text readings, draft a purpose statement for what you want your dissertation research to be.

Be sure to address the following:

  • The purpose statement should follow 1 of the template examples provided in your reading assignments. 
  • Include both a description of your research problem or issue and the selected theoretical topic. 
  • How could you apply Edmondson’s and McManus’ 3 archetypes of methodological to your proposed research purpose? 
  • Explain your rationale, and cite sources as appropriate.
